Crosses Stopped

Andre Onana

Being able to claim crosses is a key part of a keeper’s game. It demonstrates their decision-making and takes the pressure off the defenders in front of them.

Mendy is the clear winner on this metric, with the Senegalese international claiming 7.5% of his crosses over the course of the 2021/22 league season.

Onana is the second best, having collected 5.3% of his crosses this campaign, while Kepa is the least inclined to come and take command of his box (4.5%).

The Inter goalkeeper would, therefore, be an improvement on Chelsea’s current number one but it isn’t exactly one of his best traits.
